In this episode:
            I talk about what to do if you don’t have the money to invest in professional development opportunities. 
We talk about:
The what, why and how of pursuing professional development opportunities even if you don’t have the money to pay for it yourself. 
Quotables:
-Professional development means any opportunity to grow our literacy practice via the acquisition and implementation of evidence based practices that support student learning. 
-We pursue evidence based literacy related professional development because we want to be great at our job and our students deserve a bomb teacher that knows their stuff.
-A little known fact is that schools often get funding for teacher professional development, this means that sometimes all you have to do is ask admin in order to get your professional development paid for.
